The History of Birthstones

Birthstones have a long history and have been a part of people’s lives since ancient times. They are also widely recognized in the world and can be seen in a variety of situations. Let’s take a look at the history of birthstones.

 

Birthstones Originated in Biblical Times

The origin of birthstones can be traced all the way back to biblical times. The twelve gems in the Old Testament book of Exodus and the twelve gems in the New Testament book of Revelation are said to be the basis of today’s birthstones.

 

After that, they were spread all over the world by jewellers, but gradually became unevenly distributed in different parts of the world. Therefore, in 1912, the American gemstone industry decided on a base for birthstones. Although there are some differences in gemstones from region to region, the base has become the same worldwide.

 

Birthstones and Birthday Stones

The term “birthstone” conjures up images of a gemstone for each month, but there is also a birthstone for each of the 366 days of the year. There are also birthstones and birthday stones for each of the 366 days of the year. How about using birthstones and birthday stones as a reference for gifts?

 

There are 12 types of birthstones

There are one or two birthstones for each month. Although they may differ slightly from country to country, the base stones are common and well known throughout the world, making them a good choice for gifts.

 

On the other hand, there is a birthstone for each of the 366 days of the year. Unlike the birthstone for each month, the birthstone for the day of birth sounds romantic, although it has a temporary boom factor.

 

It is OK to wear a gemstone other than your birth month!

There is no problem in wearing a gemstone other than your birth month. Why not choose a gemstone based on your colour preference or the language of the stone? Another way to have fun is to change the gemstone you wear for each month. It is also nice to have a collection of jewellery for each month.
